Lovely blackberry notes. Medium-bodied, elegant and refreshing, with an explosive minty finish.
Winemaker and vineyard : Vincent Mulliez acquired Château Belle-Vue in 2004. This estate, located in the Sud-Médoc region, comes from an exceptional terroir. The gravelly soil on which the 30-year-old vines grow, combined with traditional growing techniques, produce an exceptional wine.
Tasting : A blend of 48% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 20% Petit Verdot, 1% Cabernet Franc and 1% Carménère, aged for approximately 14 months in oak, 30% new, the 2018 Belle-Vue reveals pretty notions of crushed blackberries, mulberries and boysenberries, plus suggestions of underbrush, ground cloves and menthol. The medium-bodied palate is elegantly styled and refreshing, delivering bags of crunchy black fruits and a soft texture, finishing with a minty kick. It has 14% alcohol.
